Hamilton–Norwood scale

23/06/2022 by Dr.Mehmet Demircioglu

The Hamilton–Norwood scale is used to classify the stages of male pattern baldness. The stages are described with a number from 1 to 7. This measurement scale was first introduced by James Hamilton in the 1950s and later revised and updated by O’Tar Norwood in the 1970s. It is sometimes referred to as the Norwood–Hamilton scale or simply the Norwood scale. The scale is regularly used by doctors to assess the severity of baldness, but it is not considered very reliable since examiners’ conclusions can vary.
